Playoff rules and schedule
After the regular season, the top eight teams in the table qualify for the easyCredit BBL playoffs. These are decided in a knockout system to determine the German champion. The first and second-placed teams face a team from the play-in tournament.
The playoffs consist of quarterfinals, semifinals, and finals. In each round, two teams face each other in a “best-of-five” series. This means that the team that wins three games first advances to the next round. The higher-ranked team from the main round has home advantage in games one, three, and five. If Bayern wins its three remaining games, it can secure home advantage in all series.
The playoffs usually begin in May and end with the final series victory of one team, which then secures the German championship title.
